Author Message   Cold_iron Posted on Monday, May 14, 2007 - 12:06 am:        i just bought a select seat and my girlfriend is complaining about that 1" strap that goes perpendicular to the seat. Ive noticed a few members have removed this strap as this will be this the solution for her, but anyway what does purpose does it serve?   Chainsaw Posted on Monday, May 14, 2007 - 12:08 am:        IIRC: DOT requires a passenger grab strap to legally carry a passenger.   Cold_iron Posted on Monday, May 14, 2007 - 12:13 am:        thanks!   Old_man Posted on Monday, May 14, 2007 - 09:21 am:        Also, it is handy when you have to remove the seat.   Diablobrian Posted on Monday, May 14, 2007 - 10:26 am:        Yeah, the DOT wants to encourage poor passenger habits. They (pillion riders)are supposed to hang on to the rider, not the bike! More regulations brought to you by those that have never ridden a motorcycle.   Midknyte Posted on Monday, May 14, 2007 - 12:16 pm:        More regulations brought to you by those that have never ridden a motorcycle why is that not hard to believe...   Borrowedbike Posted on Tuesday, May 15, 2007 - 12:42 pm:        FYI I've seen the TT Seat that has no strap and a cool "No riders" Logo on it   Jaimec Posted on Tuesday, May 15, 2007 - 10:08 pm:        The saddle does not require a passenger grab strap if the motorcycle itself is equipped with grab rails for the passenger.   Cityxslicker Posted on Wednesday, May 16, 2007 - 03:40 pm:        its a directional gate for the rain that gets ducted down your keester.   Metalstorm Posted on Thursday, May 17, 2007 - 06:33 pm:        It's also good for tucking the gloves under so they don't fall off the seat when you run into the store for a soda or stop at a gas station to fill the frame.
